Those of you who are counting down the days until Nolan's third installation in his Batman series will be pleased to know that on-set photos and videos have popped up on the internet. We caught a glimpse of Tom Hardy as Bane a while back when his image was virally shared all over Twitter. Now, coverage of shooting on the Pittsburgh set shows off the character's full costume.
It's a little less leathery than I expected. Granted, who's to say the man can have only one coat? Maybe he needed a rugged brown sheepskin thing for this particular scene. I don't know. It's cut a little awkwardly and has a strange half-hood going on. Also he looks awfully warm in his full winter getup under that sun. At least the mask looks good. But are those navy blue cargo pants? They do not exactly go with the apocalyptic leather he's rocking on the top half. Oh well. You can color-correct anything these days. I'm sure Nolan knows what he's doing and it'll look fine. I still can't help but see Hardy-Bane as a mutated lumberjack, though.
There are also some snaps of Marion Cotillard and Gary Oldman over at IGN. Enjoy!
